A BABY ALPACA WOOL

Alpaca wool is the natural fiber harvested from alpacas, a South American camelid. The yarn can be lightweight or heavy, depending on how it is spun. It is a soft, durable, lu- xurious and silky natural fiber. While similar to sheep’s wool, it is warmer, not prickly, and has no lanolin, which makes it hypoallergenic. Alpaca fiber is naturally water-repellent and fire-resistant. Baby alpaca wool is also considered sustainable because of the alpacas’ low-impact grazing habits.
